Domains of Service Expertise

Liver Diseases

Siemens Healthcare Laboratory is the exclusive provider of the noninvasive Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF™) testing* service for all stages of clinical trials in the United States. The ELF test* is a blood test performed in our CLIA laboratory. It is currently used in several early- and late-stage clinical trials for metabolic diseases, including primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), hepatitis C, and hepatitis B therapies.

In addition, a full range of routine diagnostic tests for liver-related conditions is available upon request. As an integrated diagnostics company, we also offer access to our expertise in the use of ultrasound and magnetic resonance (MR) for noninvasive management of patients with liver fibrosis.

*The Enhanced Liver Fibrosis (ELF™) testing service is exclusively performed in the US by Siemens Healthcare CLIA Laboratory, Berkeley, California.
